POWERING THE CB
You can power your TRC-236 from any of these sources (none supplied):
•Eight AA alkaline batteries with the two supplied dummy batteries
•Ten rechargeable AA nickel- cadmium batteries
•12-volt vehicle battery power using a fused power cord
•Standard AC power using a power supply
USING THE POWER JACK AND ALKALINE/NI-CD SWITCH
The POWER jack lets you connect an ex- ternal power source (such as your vehi- cle’s battery power or AC power), or connect a battery charger to charge nickel-cadmium batteries while they are in the TRC-236.
The TRC-236 also has a slide switch (AL- KALINE/NI-CD) inside the battery com- partment that you must set correctly, depending on what power source you are using and whether or not you want to charge rechargeable batteries while they are in the TRC-236.
